12 inevitable summer wardrobe hits
EVERY SEASON we talk about things that it makes sense to add to your wardrobe. This time we chose 12 items of clothing, accessories and shoes that you can easily find in stores in the next three months. Feel free to add them to the list of topical things of the season in the spirit of retro-futurism and unchanged hits of spring.
Transparent things
One of the main trends of the season, touching not only clothes, but also, of course, shoes and accessories. Take at least the ubiquitous jewelry and backpacks made of transparent plastic. To wear a transparent dress, you will need tight bra-tops and high-waisted briefs, but transparent knee-length skirts can be worn under an elongated jacket or coarse jacket. Don't forget that transparent tops look great with denim.

Bra-top
Ultra-short bras, sports tops, gang strips - tops, completely exposing the belly, this year have replaced crop tops. In fact, bra-tops are another sign of the growing popularity of sports lifestyle. Best of all bra-tops fit wide trousers, spacious culottes, bermuda shorts and midi-length trapezoid skirts. Another mikrotop ideal under a jacket or transparent things.

Blofers and slippers
As a summer alternative to men's-style shoes, neat slippers and blofers (loafers without a heel) act. This year their choice in stores is more varied than usual. You can find slippers made of leather or suede, pointed and massive, of different colors - pink, white, beige, black. Wear blofers like shoes — say, with a suit or a silk dress.

Suit with shorts
Summer does not eliminate the need to wear strict things - on the occasion or every working day. Get out and diversify the wardrobe in several ways. First, you can refer to the color versions of the costumes: blue, green, orange, beige, dusty pink and not only. In the heat of trousers, it is better to replace them with bermuda shorts, culottes or skirts, and as an alternative to a jacket, choose an elongated vest.

Hoodie
Sports style and lifestyle actively sets the tone for fashion, and following sneakers, sweatpants and bra-tops, the brands revise hoodie. So, Hoodie Moschino resembles a Chanel tweed jacket, while Massimo Giorgetti Hoodie is made of transparent polyamide. MSGM also combines this wardrobe item with a floor-length dress. A hoodie with a hood will suit skirts of different lengths, wide trousers and dresses, and you can add an image with sandals.

Dress shirt
The dress-shirt is indispensable in the summer and this season is presented in almost all brands: EDUN, Proenza Schouler, Calvin Klein and DKNY. It is worth paying attention to the narrowed or straight dress length to the middle of the calf. Designers are offered to wear them with platform shoes and wide belts. Do not forget that the dress can be worn over the pants - the main thing is to find the right fit.

Jacket straight cut
The classic unisexual working jacket with a straight cut and front pockets of the brand is included in the collection annually. You can choose either a classic denim from Levi's store, or a designer jacket made from original materials - actual suede or decorated with sequins, prints, embroidery. The jacket may be short, sitting on the figure, and may be elongated exaggerated volume. In both cases, wear it with wide or narrowed trousers and skirts of different lengths, from mini to maxi, and, of course, dresses.

Sandals
You won’t surprise anyone with Birkenstocks: they are no longer called the ugliest shoes in the world. In general, comfortable flat sandals are adapted to everyday life by different brands. The combination of clothes and clothing is not to be considered: it can be an evening dress, a strict tuxedo, shorts and skirts of different lengths, flares unchanged this summer. Sandals can be worn with any clothes - and it is a sin not to use it.

Bermuda and Culottes
Last year, Bermuda shorts and culottes came into fashion, which by this summer had become an inevitable part of the summer wardrobe. Wide cropped trousers appear on the vast majority of hits. Designers offer simple combinations: with a white shirt, an elongated jacket, a bra-top or leather jacket, as well as sandals on his heel and on the platform.

Shoes with a small heel
Low-heeled, dance-like shoes can now be seen at most of the key shows for the coming autumn and spring of 2016 - Chanel, Céline, Miu Miu, Stella McCartney. We are proposing to adapt the trend now, especially since similar shoes can be found this summer among mass-market brands like Topshop and & Other Stories.

Polo and Polo Dresses
Polo and polo dresses are another good example of fashion and sport friendship. This season, Alexander Wang, Topshop Unique, Proenza Schouler, Carven, Massimo Giorgetti and many others have taken up the creation of variations of the tennis top. I must say, their polo versions have nothing to do with the club style: in their collections polo is presented in combination with a short trapezoid skirt, culottes, shorts and sandals, and even a colored trouser suit.

Split earrings
Stamps are not the first season offer tailored skirts, dresses, tops and jackets. However, the fashion for asymmetric things touched not only clothes. A striking example of asymmetry in accessories - unpaired accessories. This technique is addressed in different seasons by Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior and Loewe. So now, if you get confused jewelry - it does not matter, feel free to wear earrings of different shapes and lengths together.
